 | This article was tagged for speedy deletion under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion but a reviewing administrator or uninvolved experienced editor declined the request on the basis that: "Allen & Gledhill is one of Singapore's oldest law firms, founded by Rowland Allen and Joseph Gledhiill in 1902." is a claim of significance.. This article should not be tagged again for speedy deletion under the same criterion and, unless a valid, separate speedy deletion basis exists, further attempts at deleting this article should be made via the proposed deletion process (prod) if uncontroversial, or the article taken to articles for deletion (AfD) for debate on the merits. Note: this template should be removed once the associated article has survived an AfD debate; or has been significantly changed such that further speedy deletion requests are unlikely. |

Read the content of the article and its apparent that this article is NOT a candidate for speedy deletion. I've added in third party sources that are well-respected in the legal industry, that have given it significant coverage and rankings. This organization is NOTABLE for several reasons: 1. Largest law firm in Singapore and one of the largest in Asia 2. Ranked top tier by objective industry incides 3. Heritage 4. Organization's employees and alumni are prominent and renowned in Singapore. User:AlphaBet678 (talk) 18:19, 14 February 2014 (UTC)
- Note, AlphaBet678, I declined the nomination for speedy deletion. However you should note that the article is getting very promotional in tone; it should be edited to be more neutral. If the page sounds like a marketing flyer it is apt to be deleted for that reason alone, however notable it may be. Note also that significant coverage in reliable, independent (3rd-party) sources is what is needed -- directory listings, top-500 lists, press releases, blog posts, and the like are of little value.
